  2. NOAA average annual global temperatures 1880-2009, relative to the average for 1901-2000 (www.climate.gov). Though warming has not been uniform across the planet, the upward trend in the globally averaged temperature shows that more areas are warming than cooling. From 1900 through 2009 the globally averaged surface temperature rose by approximately 0.7° C. The rate of temperature increase has risen as well. For the last 50 years, global temperature rose at an average rate of about 0.13°C per decade-almost twice as fast as the 0.07°C per decade increase observed over the previous half-century. [But note that in the 30-year period 1910-40 it rose faster than in the 30-year period 1980-2010] n the next 20 years, scientists project that global average temperature will rise by around 0.2°C per decade.

  7. . September ice extent from 1979 to 2009 shows a continued decline. The September rate of sea ice decline since 1979 has now increased to 11.2 percent per decade ( Sea Ice Index data , US National Snow and Ice Data Center, http:// nsidc.org/data/seaice_index / ).

  9. The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is a phenomenon associated with fluctuations in temperatures, rainfall and storminess over much of Europe, especially in winter. When the NAO is 'positive' in winter, westerly winds are stronger or more persistent, northern Europe tends to be warmer and wetter than average and southern Europe colder and drier. When the NAO is 'negative' in winter, westerly winds are weaker or less persistent, northern Europe is colder and drier and southern Europe warmer and wetter than average. One of the simplest definitions of the NAO is that it is the difference in pressure at sea-level between the Azores and Iceland. [The NAO has dominated the low-frequency variability of European climate in recent decades. HadCM3 has clear deficiencies in its simulation of the NAO in a 100-yr control run. Therefore its predictions of future NAO behaviour must be treated with caution. Woolings et al., J.Cl., 2010, p. 1291].

The series is currently based on weighted averages of daily observations from a network of stations in five regions. It is the longest instrumental series of this kind in the world. Daily data begin in 1931. Data are available for EWP and for nine individual regions of the UK, including Scotland and Northern Ireland.
